- Joe Biden’s portrait belongs on currency.
- While conservative propaganda outlets gripe about Kamala Harris’s laugh in a standard misogynistic attack, no one had been able to produce any video or audio of Donald Trump genuinely laughing.
- Nothing screams “entitled” better than complaining that you spend so much donated money on ads that were instantly made outdated. Well, maybe one thing: when Stephen Miller is the one complaining.
- Biden is a man of honor, patriotism and service. Kamala Harris is a woman with the same characteristics. The name at the top of the ticket changed; the values didn’t. And no matter how they change the message, the values and goals of Republicans didn’t change either.
- If nothing else, this week demonstrates that we can drastically cut back on election season: Start debates in February; hold primaries in May and June. No more two-year campaigns with endless ads and propaganda. The key to the plan: Ban fundraising by campaigns and affiliated PACs until one year before the election.
- Why Mike Pence was not considered for the Trump ticket did not get enough attention in national news coverage.
- The President has six months in office, no fucks to give, and–thanks to the Clarence Thomas posse–complete immunity. Why aren’t Republicans quaking in fear? Simple: because they know Democrats understand how to safely exercise their authority, unlike Trump.
- Kamala Harris is reigniting liberals’ and independents’ enthusiasms. The 100,000 people who registered to vote after she assumed the mantle are firmly on the side of Democrats. That scares Trump: He has no reserve of cultists he can excite. He’s peaked; he can only go down. Kamala’s capturing the old “double haters” who didn’t like either elderly old white man.
- JD Vance’s political career is all the evidence you need to support public funding of campaigns to limit the influence of big donors on races.
- Not to brag, but my doc told me I have twice the average amount of testosterone typical for a man my age and no, there was no tanning involved. From my experience, the low testosterone problem Tucker Carlson whines about seems to be solely a conservative issue.
- My heart wants Josh Shapiro. My head tells me Mark Kelly. But my gut gurgles Roy Cooper.
- Okay, let me get this straight: Trump-ettes claim the man who Republicans say is too feeble to govern planned his retirement announcement for after the GOP convention in a master stroke to manipulate the GOP to waste resources to attack him and nominate a power-hungry misogynist nationalist to be VP, all the while planning to stealthily slide Kamala Harris into the nom. And they simultaneously claim that this same man is intellectually and cognitively incapable of being President. Really?
- Kudos to the Paris Olympics planners for boldly using the Seine as the path for the Opening Ceremonies. It was creative and successful, but the highlight was the return of Celine Dion, an artist I’m not particularly fond of, but whose story deserves recognition.
- In our little garden, I grew banana peppers this spring. I like banana peppers, I really do. But I do not like having about five pounds of banana peppers ripening at once. Can someone genetically modify plants to produce the food when I want it, please?
- Keanu Reeves is the man Tom Cruise thinks he is.
- The best food I ever had a sporting event was a hot dog my father bought me at a game when I was a kid. The best beer: the ones I had with my college buddies after we finished vending at a baseball game. In each case, it had nothing to do with taste.
- If the economy is as bad as Donald Trump claims, how did millions of people have enough disposable income to finance a nine-figure haul for Kamala? That’s devotion. That’s drive. That’s commitment. That’s patriotism.
